A ceramic coating is a semi-permanent protective layer applied over corrected paint. Local operators start the price at $700.
This page covers what a coating does and does not do, why preparation decides the result, what a warranty usually covers, and how to compare a $700 quote with a $1,400 one.

The coating bonds to clear coat and adds a hard, hydrophobic layer. Water beads and leaves, dust releases more easily, and ultraviolet exposure is slowed. It does not stop stone chips, and it does not replace the protection of a garage.
Coating is applied over corrected paint. Applying it over swirls locks them in, which is why a serious quote pairs preparation and correction with the coating itself.
Published local pricing starts at $700 for a ceramic coating. The spread above that figure comes from preparation: washing, decontaminating, correcting and panel wiping all happen before the first coat.
Coating warranties usually cover the coating layer against failure, not the paint against damage. Read three things: how many years, whether the annual inspection is mandatory, and whether the warranty requires the customer to book maintenance washes.
Ask for the product name and the number of layers in writing. Two quotes at very different prices often differ by product, layer count, or how much correction is included.

Published local pricing starts at $700. The final figure depends on vehicle size, the number of layers, and how much paint correction is needed before the coating goes on.
It slows ultraviolet damage and makes the car easier to keep clean in a dusty, sunny valley. Whether it pays depends on how long you keep the vehicle and whether it is parked outside.
Usually yes, but the car must be under cover and out of the sun, and the surface must be clean and dry. The detailer confirms the space before booking.
